The Fuel of the Future.

It is fact well known in manufactur-
ing circles that the vast bulk of the heat
contained in coal is wasted. Only four
teen out of tho hundred parts of carbon
is actually utilized. Hence, one of the
problems of chemistry has been to get
more power, in the way of heat and light,
out of given quantity of coal. Prof L
s. g. Lowe claims to have solved this
problem, matter which is of vast impor-
lance, if it is a fact. The process is to
pulverize the coal, and, in converting it
into gas, the coal is reduced to pow
dered form so fine that it will float in the
atmosphere, and it is carried into the
burning by current of air artifcially
produced. In the powdered form every
thing is consumed, as it makes no smoke
and leaves no ashes. This would utilize
the mountains of SO called waste, now
piled up near coal mines and manufac-
tories. But Prof loves invention goes
farther. A ton of anthracite coal will
generate from eighty to hundred cubic
feet of gas. The cost will be about nine
cents cubic foot. This invention is al
ready in use in the city of Troy, in the
laundries of that place, and is also used
for power and for heating and cooking in
hotel and restaurants. The gas furnished
is non-luminous and is intensely hot
These facts have come out in report to
the Scranton Board of Trade, which calls
the new invention anthracite gas. The
result will be marvellous economy in
the heating of houses and the cooking of
food, while one ton of coal Will go as far
as hundred tons nowadays.

Buffalo chump who occupies the presi-
dental chair as president. Imagine
Cleveland purchasing Louisiana. Had
he been president in Jefferson's time he
would not have known where Louisiana
was. Cleveland write the Declaration of
Independence! How is that for giddy

blance between the ardent, inquisitive
sentimental, theory-loving, affectionate,
hospitable and really Democratic Jetfer-

A Sensible Business Proposition.

The Union Pacific Railway company
proposes a sensible line of policy; indeed,
it is imperative. There was a good deal
of j4gglery practiced in and about the
building of that road. Had it been other
wise, the fact would have been remark
able. But the road was built; it served
good purpose, and is now one of the
great arteries of commerce and is under
a liberal, progressive and broad-gauged
management. It is useless now to talk
about what ought to have been done and
what might have been done; the great
fact is the road was useful agency, it
has done more good than harm, and the
thing to do now is to put its bust
ness in condition to give the
company an equal chance in the
carrying business with all other railway
companies. The necessities of trade and
the common sentiment of the country re-
quire enlarged transportation facilities,
and the time has come for systematizing
of that stupendous traffic so that, though
there be thousand different railroad
companies In the country, they shall oper-
ate as parts of our great organized sys-
tenn. This makes it imperative that all
monarchs be removed from interstate
commerce. Carriers must be left free to
reach out into new fields for trade, be-
cause under the general law regulating
charges, the more roads the better for
the people and for the companies. If
any one company is crowded and weight
ed down so that it may not build new
lines whenever they are needed for its
business, that company will 60 into
bankruptcy, because other companies
that are free and active will take its trade
away from it.
The people of Kansas have not felt
friendly toward the Union Pacific because
the Union Pacific did not feel friendly to
Kansas nor to any other part of the
country. It was fit representative of
the legal idea of corporation person
without soul. And then, many of our
citizens have just claims unsettled against
that company. It avoided paying taxes
on lands granted to it. We might en-
large the list of enumerated grievances.
But there is another way of settling them.
Let it be pursued The point We make is
that the company has soul In it now,
even though it be sordid one-ike most
other souls, by the way-and good bust
ness sense requires that the government,
saving its security, take early steps to let
the company strike out and do what is
best for the road and for the country
through which it runs. That will be
best for the government as we'll as for
the company. II the Union Pacific is
really to do something for the country
and at the same time earning good inter-
est on the capital Of its stockholders,
let it 60 ahead.

An End to Bone Scraping.
